Parameter

Description

plaintext

(Required) The input string on which the hash function must be run.

(Required) The hashed output from the GenerateSCryptHash function.

options

(Optional) A struct with the following values:

  • keyLength - key length for the algorithm (as defined in scrypt this is dkLen). The default is currently 32.

Example

<cfscript> 
    stringToEncrypt="Sample string" 
    options = StructNew()  
    options.cpucost = 1024  
    options.memorycost = 64  
    options.keylength = 16  
    options.saltlength = 8 
    sCrypted=GenerateSCryptHash(stringToEncrypt,options)  
    // struct 
    decryptOptions = structNew() 
    decryptOptions.keylength=16 
    backToString = VerifySCryptHash(stringToEncrypt, sCrypted, decryptOptions) 
    writeDump(backToString)  
</cfscript>
